The Qi family is also a big family with a head and a face in the city, the Qi family has a large population, and there is naturally a patriarch if there is a family, but the current patriarch has been in office for many years, and his health is gradually not as good as before, and he was seriously ill and hospitalized a few days ago, so the matter of selecting a new patriarch is becoming more and more urgent.

The number of Qi's subsidiaries is still very large, but now only the two companies managed by Qi Ming and Qi Mucheng can be on the table.

Now there is still a lot of discussion about the selection of the patriarch in the outside world, and before the family meeting is held, even if there are many theories, it is impossible to draw conclusions.

In the past few days, Qi Ming would take Qiao Ruoyu to the company every morning and let her stay in the office for a while before leaving.

Xuan Xue also came to the company to find trouble after that incident, but it was also successfully solved by Qiao Ruowei, and Qiao Ruoyu still remembered the admiring look in Qi Ming's eyes that day.

Qiao Ruoyu also felt that Qi Ming had changed a lot towards herself in the past few days than before, this was a good opportunity, a good opportunity to prove himself to him.

A few days later, the family meeting was held.

Because before the family meeting, the elders of the clan had already announced to the public that this year's patriarch would be produced among the young generation of the Qi family, so today, all the young talents of the Qi family who are small and famous have come to participate in this meeting.

Although they knew that with Qi Ming and Qi Mucheng there, it was unlikely that they would be selected, but since they had this opportunity, everyone came to participate with the mentality of giving it a try.

Qi Mucheng didn't have much interest in the position of the head of the Qi family, but Qi Ming, he knew that Qi Mucheng didn't bother to participate in this kind of selection, so he almost came with the mentality of winning.

However, Qi Mucheng is not interested, which does not mean that others are not interested.

Xuan Xue is still very concerned about the selection of the patriarch of the Qi family.

This Qi family meeting was presided over by the elder of the clan, Qi Long, because the patriarch was seriously ill and had been hospitalized for many days, and was still in a coma and could not attend this meeting, so he had to be presided over by the elders of the clan.

Qi Long is the patriarch of the clan, and the patriarch has been sick and hospitalized in the past few days, so he basically takes care of the affairs of the clan.

Since the birth of the previous patriarch, he has been assisting the patriarch in handling matters within the clan, and has established a high prestige, so there is almost no objection to him presiding over this meeting.

This is a family meeting of the Qi family, so outsiders are not allowed to participate, and the people sitting in the conference room at the moment are all from the Qi family, and they are all men.

The meeting begins.

Because some people still don't know much about the current situation in the clan, at the beginning, Qi Long first introduced the current situation in the clan.

"That's the specific situation, the old patriarch has been in a coma in the hospital for several days, and the affairs of the clan are increasing day by day, and I can't make decisions about many things, so I must elect a new patriarch as soon as possible."

Qi Long said, his eyes looking at the young people in front of him.

In fact, among these young generations, Qi Long values Qi Mucheng and Qi Ming the most, both of them are almost equal in career and ability, but both of them are far superior to others.

So after the meeting began, Qi Long always looked at the two of them, intentionally or unintentionally, and these were the two people who were most likely to be selected in his heart at the moment.

Qi Ming also noticed Qi Long's gaze, so after Qi Long finished speaking, he took the lead in speaking.

"The old patriarch is still in the hospital and has not yet sobered, so the clan really needs to elect a new patriarch, I think this patriarch must be taken by a capable and courageous person.

After Qi Ming said these words with confidence, the people below immediately began to discuss, some applauded and some belittled.

One person stood up and said: "I think Mr. Qi is completely competent, you see, how long has Mr. Qi's company been listed?" has already occupied a place in the stock market, and in terms of ability, of course, Mr. Qi's ability is the most prominent. ”

After listening to this person's words, Qi Ming hooked the corners of his mouth with satisfaction.

He had already bought the hearts of many people before the meeting began, and so far, the effect is still very significant.

No matter what the selection of the patriarch is compared this time, it will definitely depend on the hearts of the people in the end, and the desire of the people is what everyone wants.

But immediately one person stood up and objected: "I don't agree, there is not only one Mr. Qi here today, if you want to talk about the development of the company, which company here can compare with the God Industry Group?" Therefore, it is natural that Qi Mucheng is superior. ”

This person suddenly stood up and supported himself, Qi Mucheng was also surprised, he also took a special look at that person a few more times, and indeed did not find the existence of this person in his memory.

After this person finished speaking, Qi Ming glared at Qi Mucheng fiercely.

All right! I didn't expect it! It turns out that you, Qi Mucheng, also used this method one day, but I underestimated you.

In fact, Qi Mucheng didn't know about this matter at all.

Ever since Xuan Xue knew that the Qi family was going to select a new patriarch, she had been secretly doing the same thing as Qi Ming - buying people's hearts.

Because she knows that Qi Mucheng has never disdained to do this kind of thing, it doesn't matter, Qi Mucheng disdains to do it, she will do it.

She must not let the position of the patriarch fall into Qi Ming's hands in vain.

So among the people present today, the people who support Qi Ming and those who support Qi Mucheng are basically a one-to-one ratio.

Because the situation has been deadlocked, and the people on both sides have been arguing endlessly but have not been able to achieve results, so in the end, it was decided to vote.

Qi Long announced the implementation of anonymous voting on the spot, and the number of votes will be announced directly after the voting is completed, and the two people with the highest votes will temporarily enter the pending, and the final patriarch will be elected after discussion among the elders of the clan.

As expected, the people with the highest number of votes were Qi Ming and Qi Mucheng, and the difference in the number of votes between the two was only one vote, and it was Qi Ming who was one vote higher than Qi Mucheng.

After Qi Long announced the number of votes, Qi Ming had some chances of winning.

Qi Mucheng was very surprised by his votes, he had no intention of participating in the selection of the patriarch from the beginning, and he had never won the hearts of the people, but now that there are suddenly so many people voting for him, there must be something strange about this matter.

Qi Long felt a little regretful after reading the votes, in fact, in his heart, he was more inclined to Qi Mucheng.

Looking at the development of the company alone, it is true that the development prospects of Diye Group are better.

But Qi Ming's company has just developed in recent years, and it is rare to reach this level.

Therefore, if you talk about the development of the company, the strength of the two can be said to be indistinguishable.

But in Qi Long's heart, he always felt that Qi Mucheng's ability was stronger than Qi Ming's.

What's more, being the patriarch is not just based on ability, but also depends on all aspects of a person, and the most important thing is the person's character.

Compared with Qi Ming, Qi Mucheng's character is more believable.

"The number of votes this time is just for the elders of our clan to have a preliminary judgment, not like looking for a needle in a haystack at the beginning, at least it is much easier to choose among two people than to choose from multiple people."

Qi Long said to everyone, in fact, the highest candidate in the clan was voted for directly as the patriarch, and according to the result, the patriarch should be served by Qi Ming.

But out of Qi Long's selfishness and out of consideration for the development of the clan, he still decided to give Qi Mucheng another chance, and also to give the Qi family a chance.

"But Elder, I obviously heard that the clan is discussing that the person with the highest number of votes in today's election will directly serve as the patriarch, and I didn't say that today's selection is just a preliminary judgment? Could it be that this was a decision made by the elders without telling anyone else? ”

There was one person who suddenly stood up to refute it, and everyone in the room did not expect it.

This was arranged by Xuan Xue's research, and she spent a lot of money in snubbing people's hearts, so she firmly believed that the person with the highest number of votes must be Qi Mucheng.

The news within the family was also inquired about by her spending money, just to be able to sit in the position of the patriarch of Qi Mucheng at this meeting, but she didn't expect that Xuan Xue was smart this time but was mistaken by being smart.

The person with the highest number of votes is not Qi Mucheng, but Qi Ming.

The plan she had already designed was all made wedding clothes for others, and this person was still Qi Mucheng's competitor.

After Qi Long heard this person's words, he knew that it was the news within his family that had leaked out, and he couldn't help frowning, and even the majesty in his words was even more aggravated.

"You've heard? Who do you listen to? Do you dare to make a presumptuous argument about the family's internal meeting? Is it up to you to influence my decisions? ”

It is worthy of being an elder who has assisted two patriarchs, and as soon as these words came out, the man was so frightened that he immediately didn't dare to squeak.

After teaching that person a lesson, Qi Long's tone became a little softer: "All the decisions within the clan are just for the sake of this fair and just selection of the patriarch, not directly electing the patriarch today, we also have some other considerations." ”

"What considerations?"

"It is impossible for the old patriarch not to participate in such an important matter as the selection of a new patriarch, so we want to wait for the old patriarch to sober up, and focus on the wishes of the old patriarch, and when the time comes, we will definitely make the wishes of the old patriarch public and give you a satisfactory answer."

Qi Long brought the old patriarch out to talk about it, and there was no one to say anything more.

"Okay, since everyone has no objections, then today's meeting will be held here, and after the old patriarch wakes up, we will make a decision as soon as possible, and we will notify everyone of a new family meeting at that time, so let's dismiss the meeting."

After the meeting ended, the others left one after another, and Qi Mucheng didn't stay long, he wanted to go back as soon as possible to find out who did today's incident.

Qi Ming didn't mean to leave for a long time, how could he let go of the opportunity to talk to the elder alone?
